Hazel is starting to take shape. If your plan for the front works, she is going to have a killer stance.

Rob- You need to make a trip to Lonestar Goodguys. ...;)

I love the look already!!

What size tires/wheels do you run on those front and rear wheels?

Also, do you run into issues of the tire/wheel rub with this combination?

Thanks,
Adam

I'm doing the hammered texture mentioned above. To the untrained eye it looks like the more expensive powdercoats being used by many of the top rides right now. And I've heard it's really tough for rattle can. For 5.77 a can, it's hard to beat for the look and durability out of spray bomb...

Dang. I quit looking around C/L for a couple weeks and stuff like this pops up. I'm gonna go sit in the corner and pout now. Wait...let's hope the guy sold it for 40 grand...then I won't feel so bad at all.:lol:

Tell me about it. We were in TN @ the GoodGuys show when he surfed the DFW CL & found it. We had both tried contacting the owner previously on more than one occasion (not that I need another......).

I then gave it a quick scuff with scotch brite and then gave it a bath in lacquer thinner. After it dried I gave it a quick coat of my favorite color of Krylon with some help from my good buddy Ken (N2trux) while Scoti watched (but he did bring me a cooler of my favorite bottled drink ;) ) Anyway, I will get the notches in sometime next week with any luck.....

Keith, that thing is coming right along. Nice work!

Which Krylon color did you use on the frame? From the pics it looks pretty close to a 60-70% gloss. Lookin' good!
